A few differences on the lineup chart from the Lions game. Hage is out at centre with O'Neill in. Does that make a big difference? Hard to tell unless you spend the entire game watching the centre, but Hage is usually highly praised around the league.
Darcy Brown is back at the fullback starting position, although the Cats use a lot of five and six receiver sets. It looks like Stala is back as a starting slotback again this week. Walker is back at running back over Cobourne. Walker has a gaudy 9.1 yard average per run and three TDs through the first two games Walker is also the second leading receiver on the team behind Chris Williams.
The defensive front four stays the same, with McElveen and Crable at the ends. Only one sack for the Cats in the first two games and that's by the middle linebacker Rey Williams.
Knowlton is back with Williams and Johnson as the starting linebackers with Eiben backing up.
One changed to the starting secondary. Marcell Young is out at halfback and Carlos Thomas is in. Impressive non-import undrafter rookie Bucknor is back at one of the corners, but last season's non-import starter Ryan Hinds is now listed as a backup. Is corner now becoming a sometimes Canadian position? With teams increasingly using two imports on the offensive line, like the Ticats, the ratio changes somewhere else.
